CHAPTER 2 | SETTING UP THE EEG-SMT BOARD

This section helps you set up the EEG-SMT development board for the first time.
Please consider first the electrostatic warning to avoid damaging the board, then discover the
hardware and software required to operate the board.
The procedure to power up the board is given, and a description of the default board behavior is
detailed.
2.1 Electrostatic Warning

The EEG-SMT development board is shipped in a protective anti-static package. The board must
not be exposed to high electrostatic potentials. A grounding strap or similar protective device should
be worn when handling the board. Avoid touching the component pins or any other metallic
element.
2.2 Requirements
In order to set up the EEG-SMT evaluation board, the following items are required:
 EEG-SMT board itself

 EEG-AE - Active Electrode – 0 or 4 AE
 EEG-PE - Passive Electrode – 1 or 5 PE
 USB-CABLE – USB A to USB B cable 1.5 meter for EEG-SMT to connect to a computer
 VCP FTDI drivers (you can download the latest version from the official FTDI web site
http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm)
 Electric Guru v0.40 monitoring software or latest BrainBay
Note: You can either choose to use 5 passive electrodes or 4 active electrodes + 1 passive electrode
(needed for electrical feedback).
The EEG-SMT was designed to use standard passive EEG electrodes with shielded cables.
However, when using active electrodes instead, no skin preparation is required and better
performance can be achieved under imperfect conditions. The active electrodes described here
connect directly to the EEG-SMT without requiring any modifications to the boards.
Page 7 of 33
IMPORTANT NOTE:
EEG-AEs, EEG-PEs, USB-CABLEs are sold separately and are NOT included in the box of EEG-
SMT
Note: The board is not delivered with an ICSP debugger/programmer, which is needed if you don’t
want to use its preprogrammed software (firmware). Remember that the connector on the board is
ICSP (10 pin). You may use one of the following Olimex programmers for this purpose:
-OLIMEX AVR-ISP-MK2 – 10pin ICSP and 6pin PDI, USB type A connection
-OLIMEX AVR-ISP500-ISO – 10pin & 6pin isolated ICSP to USB type A
-OLIMEX AVR-ISP500-TINY – 10pin & 6pin ICSP to USB type A
-OLIMEX AVR-ISP500 – 10pin & 6pin ICSP to USB type A
-OLIMEX AVR-PG1 – 10pin ICSP to RS232
-OLIMEX AVR-PG2 – 10pin ICSP to parallel port
Also, a host-based software toolchain is required in order to program/debug the EEG-SMT board.
2.3 Powering up the board

The EEG-SMT board is self-powered by the miniUSB port.
Additionally the board can be powered using the 10pin ICSP connector.
20 seconds after powering the board PWR should go RED.

The current consumption is around 0,8A.
2.4 How to setup the board, peripherals and your personal computer
We have tested EEG-SMT with three software tools. These are the tools recommended by Olimex
and explained below: Electric Guru; Brain Bay and OpenVibe. However, the board should work
with any set of tools that supports OpenEEG/ModularEEG with firmware P2 (not P3).
1) Connect the EEG-SMT and a computer using the USB-CABLE
2) Go to device manager and locate the group “Other devices” and right click over the OLIMEX
device. Chose update driver software. A dialog will appear and you click “Browse my computer for
driver software” (the drivers can be downloaded from the FTDI web site under VCP link)
3) “Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer”->”Show all devices”-> Next
4) “Have disk”, and browse to the folder where you extracted CDM20814_WHQL_Certified.zip
Page 8 of 33
and locate “ftdibus.inf”
5) Click Next and then “Install software anyway”
6) If you wish to use BrainBay skip to step 11); if you wish to use OpenVibe skip to step step 17);
for Electric Guru continue reading:
7) Get the program from here: click to download
8) Extract the contents of the archive named “ElecGuru[vN].zip” and run the executable
It is advisable to make the changes shown in the picture below in your ElecGuru program in
preferences-> Trace (waveform); also make sure you have selected the proper COM port
9) Connect the 5 electrodes to the EEG-SMT (!!! The one connected to DLR must be passive
electrode)
10) Place the DLR electrode (feedback) on your ear and the other 4 on your head depending what
kind of brain activity you want to monitor – there is diagram on the next page showing the spots
you might use.
For example if you want to monitor the Frontal Lobe (thought processing) you place the electrodes
on Fp1, Fp2, F7, F8 spots (and DLR electrode to one of the ears A1, A2).
Page 9 of 33
If you want to monitor visual perception you have to monitor the Occipital Lobe – Fp1, Fp2, O1
and O2.
For more information on the functions of the brain and the respective brain zones refer to the
Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain#Functions
11) Download Brainbay software from their official web site: http://www.shifz.org/brainbay/
12) Install the program and run it
13) Click Load Design and import a sample project from folder Test_Elements (for example
modeeg_test.con or 2chn_test.con, but feel free to check others also)
14) From Option -> Device manager change the COM port to the COM port EEG-SMT is assigned
to and the baud rate to 57600 (you can check/change the COM in Windows Device Manager in
Ports section, the device is recognized as USB Serial port (COM X))
15) Do steps 9) and 10)

16) Click Play (F7)
Page 10 of 33
17) Visit OpenVibe's web page: http://openvibe.inria.fr/ and download the installation from the
download button.
18) Install OpenVibe and from the start menu navigate to the start menu folder that the installer
created. Run “openvibe acquisition server”.
19) Select “OpenEEG Modular EEG p2” from the drop-down menu and adjust it's properties.
Especially change the COM port to the proper port the EEG-SMT got connected to (after the drivers
were installed in point 6) and also remember to reduce the number of channels to 1 or 2!
20) Click Connect and then click Run
21) Run the OpenVibe client designer from the start menu shortcut “openvibe designer”
22) Create new design from File - > New
23) In the search box (to the right in the interface): type “acquisition” and drag-and-drop
Acquisition client to the design workspace (to the left in the interface)
24) In the search box (to the right in the interface): type “display” and drag-and-drop the Signal
Display box the design workspace (to the left in the interface)
25) Connect the two elements as shown in the picture below:
Page 11 of 33
26) Do steps 9) and 10)

27) Click “Play” from the tool bar at the top of the Designer interface

CHAPTER 3 | IMPORTANT NOTES AND FAQ
3.1 General notes regarding frequently encountered problems

- The virtual com port must be numbered 1, 2, 3 or 4 in order to use ElecGuru, which you can do in
Device Manager. Right-click over the COM port the device was installed onto and click
“Properties”, then navigate to “Port Settings”, then to “Advanced” and finally change “COM
number”. Check the screenshot below:
- The COM port which ElecGuru uses can be changed from preferences-> serial port.
- You have to install the drivers then start the ElecGuru program AND THEN connect the
electrodes.
- If using only ONE channel it is recommended to short circuit the other channel, or connect it to
the DLR for less noise
- Feel free to try other software that supports OpenEEG ModularEEG firmware 2 (P2) data packing.
- If you wish to change the update rate of the graph (e.g. make it update data on little intervals so
the line seems fluid – more sensitive to changes) you have to change the Latency Timer of the
virtual COM port. It is done from the same menu where you can change your COM number.
Page 14 of 33
Change it to 1ms or 2ms delay. Check the screenshot below:
There are reports that on certain operating systems it is possible that after installing the drivers and
connecting the device the mouse pointer would become unresponsive and would act crazy.
It is a bug we have reported to Microsoft and FTDI. This bug persists in the COM communication
since Windows 2000. There are two solutions available:
1)The first solution: Go to the device manager before plugging the device and mark an entry there.
Then plug the EEG-SMT to the computer (and your mouse will go crazy!) leave the mouse and use
the keyboard arrows and TAB to navigate in the device manager and reach the MICROSOFT
SERIAL BALLPOINT DEVICE and press Enter on it. Then when General tab is marked (with
dotted rectangle) press Right keyboard arrow which will lead you to Driver tab and using keyboard
button TAB navigate to disable and hit enter. Check the following screenshot:
Page 15 of 33
2)The second solution (Please follow carefully and at own risk): a solution that worked for me was
to go into the registry (Start → Run/Search → “regedit” → Enter) and edit the following value:
Location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\sermouse
Key: Start
Default value: 3
Page 16 of 33
Modify Value to 4, which is Disabled and it will stop this problem occurring. Check the pictur e
below:
More info on the software which the board was tested with can be found here:
http://www.shifz.org/brainbay/
Here you get acquainted with the main parts of the board. Note the names used on the board might
differ from the names used to describe them. For the actual names check the EEG-SMT board itself.
3.2 How to connect more than one EEG-SMT to a single PC

A lot of customers have asked for a way of using more than two channels with our EEG-SMT. The
design doesn't allow easy hardware modification to achieve that so the only way is by software
means. Now this is problematic since if you plug more than one EEG-SMT they get recognized as
the same device.
Furthermore, all EEG software we tested (Electric Guru, Brain Bay, Open ViBE) lacked support for
two (or more) inputs, e.g. two (or more) EEG-SMTs plugged simultaneously. The good news is that
it is actually possible to have more than one EEG-SMT on a computer station BUT you need to use
two (or more) instances of the same software (for example you have to run Brain Bay two times). In
one of the instances you will see data coming from the first of the EEG-SMTs, in the other you will
see the second of the EEG-SMTs.
To continue with the good news to configure the devices in such a way you don’t need additional
hardware, nor you need to open them. It can be done via the USB. The steps to do so are listed
below:
Important! Modifying other values than the ones suggested below might cause serious
troubles and even render the EEG-SMT unrecoverable.
1. Connect EEG-SMT to a computer via the USB (and ensure no other FTDI devices are connected
to the computer)
2. Make sure the drivers of the device are installed (if not install them from
http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm)
3. Download and extract the FT_PROG utility from FTDI’s web site:
http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Utilities.htm.
4. Run FT_prog.exe and select "Scan and Parse” from the menu
Page 17 of 33
5. In the left panel navigate to “USB String Descriptors” and then in the right one make sure the
“Serial Number” is enabled and the “Auto Generate Serial No” is enabled also.
Page 18 of 33
6. Right-click over Device 0 and choose to program device
Page 19 of 33
7. Close FT_prog and power cycle the EEG-SMT, then connect the second EEG-SMT
8. Open “Windows Device Manager” and if both devices are enumerated with the same COM port #
change one of them to another COM port # (from Properties –> Port Settings –> Advanced –>
COM port number)
9. Start two instances of a supported program (or two different supported programs). In their
options set one to the COM port # of EEG-SMT#1 and the other to the COM port # of EEG-SMT#2
Note: This way you can configure more than 2 EEG-SMT devices (4 channels) as long as your USB
hub (computer motherboard, power supply, etc.) is able to power the number of EEG-SMT devices
connected.
